Abstract

Health data collected by wearables and apps can be useful as part of patient-generated health data (PGHD) or personal health data for medical diagnosis or general health monitoring. Mobile health apps are more and more accepted, generate evidence and might be increasingly used in personal medicine. Data retrieved from wearables and apps are mostly not following a medical data standard and cannot be retrieved from the vendors in a straightforward way. The present work started the implementation of a Digital Health Convener and described the process to collect data from several wearables – starting with Fitbit data – and transforms this data to standardized JSON files following the Open mHealth (OmH) IEEE and the HL7 FHIR standard. The project achieved is provided as open source and can be extended and used in future projects to generate OmH and FHIR conform PGHD.
